Activity
Pours a translucent cranberry red with a finger of light pink head that quickly settles to a small ring. Very light delicate lacing
Aroma of pineapple juice, tart blackberry and acidic lemon juice.
Taste is more pronounced with tart acidic blackberry leading the way and becoming more juicy and meshing with the pineapple mid sip, mouth watering but not puckering fresh cranberry notes.
Light to medium light body, very effervescent, medium high carbonation. Juicy and tart with no real bitterness, leans more toward being a sipper.
Overall it's a nice fruited sour ale. Light and refreshing, a tart thirst quencher. I don't get any IPA qualities from this beer but as a fruited sour ale I'd gladly revisit this one, especially as summer ramps up.
Pours a hazy pale gold with two fingerd of creamy tight white head that sticks around for a long while. Leaves plenty of sticky lace as it settles.
Aroma is initially tropical, passion fruit to papaya moving into ripe peach. Citrus notes come into play with grapefruit and orange marmalade.
Taste melds the aforementioned notes adding layers of peach rings and candied grapefruit.
Medium bodied with a prickly medium light carbonation. Very smooth and soft, riding a line between being sessionable and a sipper. Leans towards sipper. Plenty of sweetness without being too sweet.
Overall a high quality double New England IPA. As their anniversary beer this one is fitting, Galaxy and Citra play perfectly here and I'd gladly revisit.

Pours a clear golden yellow with a dense rocky off white head. Leaves light soapy lace as it settles
Aroma of clean unsalted cracker and a light doughy bread initially hit the senses. Followed by notes of fresh cut grass that move into a more herbal tea character.
Taste tends to follow the aroma with clean crackery and biscuity malts paving the way for the zesty spicy hops that show up moving into a bit more herbal and grassy notes. A fair bitterness balances any sweetness and cleanses the palate
Medium bodied with a medium light carbonation, crisp and sessionable.
Overall this is an exceptional pilsner. I think the Saaz stands out a bit and pushes it towards a Czech pils in taste but either way this is a great pilsner that goes down easy. I'd gladly reach for this any day.
Appearance is an opaque hazy golden with two fingers of tight white head that settles to a light top covering leaving a thick lace behind
Aroma of sweet candied grapefruit, orange, papaya, underripe pineapple and pine
Taste follows the aromas ripe juicy pink grapefruit dominates, with a soft citrus peel moving in. Pine lingers on the end meshing with a tropical sweetness.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium carbonation. A very soft creamy mouthfeel and very smooth make this exceptionally drinkable. A light bitterness plays with a dry finish begging you to take another drink
Overall this is a wonderful New England IPA. One I'd gladly come back to. Paradisi and Citra blend beautifully to create a citrus forward NEIPA that begs you to keep drinking.
It pours a pale straw golden yellow with a slight haze, almost three fingers of eggshell white head. It's takes its time to settle leaving lots of sticky lace.
Aroma of crackery and biscuity malt, yeast, spicy and grassy noble hops.
The taste is similar to the aroma if not a bit more complex. Clean cracker and biscuit like malts meld with zesty and peppery noble hops. Lightly bitter grassy hop notes move in toward the finish making a refreshing beverage.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium carbonation, snappy, crisp and refreshing makes an extremely sessionable beer
Overall a very nice German pilsner. I'd gladly revisit this one again as summer nears. Jack's Abby knows a thing or two about a quality lager.
